Save Money with a Used Car

If you want a new vehicle, be sure to shop around. There are great deals out there. But for some, new car prices are simply not affordable. And, if you have credit problems, you’re definitely going to have to look at a used vehicle.  In addition, new cars typically depreciate from 25% to 60% in the first three years, and then depreciation usually begins to slow down.

Cars are Built Better Today for Improved Long-Term Reliability

Most consumers want a used vehicle with low mileage. That’s great if you can find it. But, as we said, today’s used cars are better than ever. In many cases, you can buy an older used vehicle, even one with higher mileage, and come out on the winning end. Just make sure you have the vehicle checked out before you buy.

Many Used Cars Get a Comprehensive Inspection

Another option is to buy from a dealer who invests money and time into reconditioning its vehicles before they go on the lot. Many dealers put their vehicles through a comprehensive inspection process. Some invest serious dollars into this process so that you get a better car.

J.D. Byrider has been in business for over 20 years and has sold nearly 900,000 vehicles across the country. Every J.D. Byrider vehicle undergoes a comprehensive inspection and comes with a limited warranty at no extra charge. Our extended service contracts and warranties provide additional peace of mind. With parts and labor charges that are among the lowest in the neighborhood, the J.D. Byrider program provides over $4000 of additional value with its vehicles.

Credit problems are nothing new. Ever since the concept of “buying on time” was introduced, there have been people who have had trouble making their payments. The result is that those who “on credit” end up imposing a finance charge- interest on the unpaid balance. As more and more people developed sloppy payment habits, the sellers (or lenders) were forced to raise the interest rates they charged. Interest became a function of risk. The higher the risk, the higher the interest rate. Systems and regulations were put in place to monitor the amount of interest that was fair and to track consumers’ rick factor based on their payment history.

Even with credit problems, consumers need transportation. Banks, credit unions, auto manufacturers and other traditional lenders have avoided the higher risk markets and have not been wiling to finance those with credit problems. Thus, the “buy here pay here” industry was born. Thousands of independent dealers opened lots across the country at which consumers could purchase a used car and get financed at a higher interest rate. For many, buy here pay here car lots have been their road back to a promising financial future.

When choosing a buy here pay here car dealer, look at these key things:

1. Better quality cars that have undergone a comprehensive inspection and are backed by a warranty.

2. A dealer who is willing to analyze your financial situation and help establish a budget and an affordable payment.

3. A company that’s willing to stand behind the vehicles it sells by providing service protection programs and affordable service after the sale.

J.D. Byrider specializes in providing good cars for people who need credit. After 20 years in the business, we’ve sold nearly 900,000 vehicles across the country. And we’ve focused on taking care of our customers to the point where we now have a Sales Satisfaction rating of 96% and a Service Satisfaction rating of 90%… we think those are the highest in the industry!

Gilbert resident Bob Hirst, 50, co-owner of the J.D. Byrider used car dealership in Chandler, said frustration pushed him to spend a Saturday a month cleaning up Chandler neighborhoods with Live Love.

“I turned 50 last year and I’ve got my own business and two kids that are 22 and 24,” he said. “I hit kind of this time of life and said, ‘Man, especially in this economy, everything’s not working out exactly like I thought it would.’”

He said that frustration drew him to refocus on some of the basic principles of Christianity, particularly the goal of helping others.

“We all realize that there’s a lot more needy people out there than we knew and that we could be one of them at any time,” he said. “It was that realization that this could be me and maybe I need to lend a hand.”

In much of the United States, winter weather conditions can have an impact on your car’s performance, and on the way it should be driven. If you live in a part of the country that’s impacted by winter weather, or if you plan to travel there, start with preparing your vehicle properly.

Make sure your heating and cooling system is working properly. Have your radiator drained, flushed and topped off with fresh coolant/antifreeze. Have your oil and oil filter changed. Have your air filter changed. Have your battery tested and replace it if necessary. Have your alternator and all belts checked.

Make sure your tires have plenty of tread and are properly inflated. Also, check to make sure your wheels are properly balanced and aligned. While you’re checking your tires, locate your spare, as well as your jack. You should also make sure you have roadside emergency kit.

It’s always a good idea to carry a special winter travel safety kit that includes a cell phone, an ice scraper and brush, cat litter (for use as a traction aid), blankets, a good flashlight, a candle, matches, a good book, a portable weather radio and a can of lock de-icer – don’t use hot water on glass or locks as it can refreeze and create a bigger problem.

When driving in snowy conditions, slow down. A good rule of thumb is to reduce speed by 50 percent. But, don’t slow down too much – your vehicle needs momentum to carry it through snow on grades. Keep a light touch on the controls. Smooth operation is the key to keeping control in slippery situations. Nervousness can lead to a hard clench of the steering wheel, which can result in loss of control. Consciously loosen your grasp or stretch out your fingers from time to time to help prevent that white-knuckled grip.

Know how to recover from skids. When braking on a slippery road, it’s all too easy to “lock up” your wheels by stepping on the brakes a little too hard. If you start to skid, steer the vehicle gently in the direction you want the front of your vehicle to go and don’t touch your brakes. This used to be called “turning into the skid,” but tests have shown that drivers often misinterpret these words in real-life situations.

If you get stuck, stay in your vehicle. Stay warm and wait for assistance. Make sure that your exhaust pipe is clear of any obstructions, including snow and ice; if you don’t, carbon monoxide gas can build up inside the vehicle.

If you’re planning a longer trip, make sure you know your route and keep abreast of the weather conditions. Also, eat enough food and drink plenty of water. Take extra food and water along.

If you have poor credit (or no credit, for that fact), but you need a vehicle to get to work, you should look for a way to finance a good used car. Buying a used vehicle on credit can be a very smart move because it can allow you to get to work to earn the money you need to live. And, it can allow you to establish a history of making payments on time. That, along with steady payment of all of your bills (such as utilities, rent, phone, credit cards, etc.) can result in improving your credit score.

But, buying a used car can be difficult because the shopping experience is different from that of a new car. With new cars, you’re not usually questioning the condition of the vehicle. After all, they’re NEW. But, if you have poor credit and can’t pay cash for that new car, your shopping choices can be limited. Although, you should realize that you do still have choices.

If you simply want transportation, you can simply pay cash for an inexpensive vehicle. But that won’t help in improving your credit rating. You could visit any one of a number of dealerships that specialize in financing people with less-than-perfect credit. Be careful when dealing with these establishments. They all charge a higher interest rate for their financing, so you should thoroughly check out the kind of program they offer.

Basically, “buy here, pay here” dealers sell used cars to people who cannot get financing at new car dealerships.  Even though you might be one of those “credit-challenged” people, you should still check out the dealer thoroughly. Make sure you’re able to discern the condition of the vehicle in which you’re interested. Cars in good condition are of higher value than cheaper ones. And, if you’re fortunate enough to find one in good condition, you can be just as satisfied as if you bought a new car.

If you’re looking to buy a good used car with confidence, you should check out J.D. Byrider because they specialize in selling good cars to people who need credit. After 20 years in business, Byrider has sold nearly 900,000 vehicles. They’ve kept tabs on what vehicles to buy so they can provide their customers with dependable vehicles.

Every vehicle undergoes a Comprehensive Inspection and is backed by a limited warranty. Additionally, J.D. Byrider Service Departments provide assistance by skilled, trained technicians to Byrider customers only.

Additionally, all payments are reported to the three major credit bureaus. That is extremely important because, by sticking to the affordable budget and making payments on time, customers can actually see their credit rating improve and, perhaps, find themselves in the position to purchase a new car the next time they’re in the market!

J.D. Byrider was founded in 1989 to provide a program that exceeds the customer’s expectations and maximizes their opportunity for advancement. According to JDBFacts.com, where Byrider posts its Customer Satisfaction Ratings, the Sales Satisfaction Rating is 96% and the Service Satisfaction Rating is 90%.
